How would I save leaderstats?
I'll make this short, so I am trying to make a currency save system, but it won't work. So If I change "lvl" to 5, next time when I join the game it'll say "0", that means that I have no currency, obviously, no output errors as far as I can see.
01 | local players = game:GetService("Players") |
02 | local datastore = game:GetService("DataStoreService") |
03 | local ds1 = datastore:GetDataStore("CashValueSaver") |
04 |
05 | players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player) |
06 | local folder = Instance.new("Folder") |
07 | folder.Name = "leaderstats" |
08 | folder.Parent = player |
09 |
10 | local currency1 = Instance.new("IntValue") |
11 | currency1.Name = "lvl" |
12 | currency1.Parent = player.leaderstats |
13 | currency1.Value = ds1:GetAsync(player.UserId) or 0 |
14 | ds1:SetAsync(player.UserId, currency1.Value) |
15 |
16 | currency1.Changed:connect(function() |
17 | ds1:SetAsync(player.UserId, currency1.Value) |
18 | end) |
19 |
20 | end) |
Thanks!

Why would you save the data when currency1's value is changed? It would result in a lot of " DataStore request was added to queue" warnings. User#25852 0 — 4y

Instead of just linking OP to a video to have them figure it out themselves, why not try and help them with their issue? User#25852 0 — 4y
